I look forward you posting a massive number of clips showing Brexiteer MPs getting it wrong. I'm especially keen to see you posting Johnson's claims about no border in the Irish sea, no delays at ports, frictionless trade, no tariffs, etc, etc. You're going to be very busy 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or if you prefer not to trust speculative money-makers who have no interest in a country's welfare, you can take a look at much more reliable economic guides like the IMF predictions: https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/jan/26/imf-downgrades-forecast-for-uk-economic-recovery IMF downgrades forecast for UK economic recovery Financial body says UK growth in 2021 will be lower than earlier forecasts, while global recovery will be stronger https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55006982 It also said that a disconnect between financial markets and real economic activity poses risks to financial stability, while higher debt levels may make future investments more difficult.

But do feel free to explain to us here why the IMF are wrong when they say "a disconnect between financial markets and real economic activity poses risks to financial stability, while higher debt levels may make future investments more difficult." And do explain why you claim equity markets are a reliable guide to our future economic prospects. I can't wait to see your explanation Gumpy.

The markets exist primarily for investors to gamble on maximising their profits, and that has lead to the country being fu*cked over on numerous occasions.

When the currency dropped - "good for exports", when businesses posted losses/lost revenue from higher prices of imported materials - "badly run", when they can't sell/export their goods because of the paperwork - "badly run/can't fill in the right forms" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
